1.38

Next is said 'karma'. Although karmas are boundless, collectively there are only three: good, evil, and unmoving. Due to the aforementioned blazing of greed and anger, one sets body and speech in motion to commit various evil karmas, namely the ten non-virtuous karmas of three of the body, four of speech, and three of mind. Or there are those who slightly understand cause and effect and, craving the glory and pleasure of future lives, turn evil into good and uphold the five, eight, or ten precepts against killing and so forth; these are good karmas. Or reviling the gross suffering and obstructions below, and rejoicing in the pure, subtle benefits above, one cultivates meditative concentration with outflows; this is called unmoving karma. Although these three kinds of karma differ in superiority and inferiority, all are created by a deluded mind and are all subsumed under the category of outflows. Therefore, in the Perfect Enlightenment Sūtra, in concluding the three karmas it says: 'Because all are saṃsāra, they do not accomplish the noble path.' From this we know that the preceding three karmas are all established in reliance on affliction.
